my 11th 1789 George Washington Inaugural button & a 7 copper day*5 coin copper spill

Todd and myself decided to go to a deep site that we found.a good 3 mile hike in.we been putting this site off for awhile now due to the hike but,today we decided to go for it.
took us a good hour to get close to it but along the way we spotted a hole.it was hit real good and only one target came out smack in the middle of the cellar hole.looks like a toasted KGIII.
off to the spot we mapped out.a few buttons.todd got a few coins ,I got a 5 coin pocket spill (huge KGIII Hibernia? a couple matron heads,a braided hair, a classic head half cen tand a lone CT? copper with a clipped planchet.
we were pretty wiped out by 3pm and low on water so,we decided to call it a day.we made the trek back and along the way we took another trail out and what do we see a bran foundation set back behind a pond.
Todd located the homesite up on a knoll.no cellar just a pile of rocks and a couple cut stones and bricks.todd nabbed another copper and I dug my 11th 1789 George Washington Inaugural button.waht a day! was beautiful out 70 degrees,ticks were insane and ran outta water but so worth the long mountainous hike in and out!
Gotta work on a couple coins tomorrow and get that green verdigris off.

Dang HMN, thank goodness I don't have one for sale because you have officially diluted the GW button market. That's one helluva hunt!

 

[testing123]

now that's a productive hunt!

Yeah maybe you shoulda hidden them all away except for one so they'd be more rare :-) jk that is truly amazing and a hell of a day of hunting. Great job bud

Amazing hunt!!! Colonial ANYTHING and I'd PASS OUT!! Maybe I'll get lucky and stumble over a French Indian fur trappers portage. Michigan just isn't the colonial hot spot. You guys have soo much history, it's GREAT!!!
